Projects in progress
AI and Process Automation for Sustainable Entertainment and Media (EMERALD) IP: Blat Gimeno, Jose Angel The current surge in video and extended reality content is causing an excessive demand for skilled human resources, data processing, and energy. EMERALD meets this challenge by developing process automation for sustainable media creation; optimizing data use for AI/ML in entertainment and media applications; reducing the power demands for large-scale media data processing; and creating acceptance and demand for AI and sustainable production technologies in the entertainment and media industries. Project start and end: 2023-2026.
